The tool introduced ICEM Design Experience application, which is a surface modeling app used for Computer Aided Styling and Class A surface modelers. The application has a highly interactive and innovative user experience to increase the levels of productivity and collaboration.

Function Driven Generative Design

The feature helps even the design beginners to generate optimized conceptual assemblies and parts from the functional specifications. The advanced version needs just a button press to run simulations and create highly optimized, smooth, and regular product surfaces. The feature also has some new controls to make changes in the designs of the optimized parts.  

Cyber Systems Engineering

The feature provides digital continuity to validate, design, and experience mechanical, electronic and software systems. Cyber systems engineering has also introduced a new role Virtual Systems Experience Designer which helps in the integration of 3D party FMI. The feature gives a better understanding of the realistic behavior of the entire system.

Some other features of CATIA R2019x:

  • System engineers can now work with multiple enhancements and across additional roles. The new version of the tool makes their job easier and highly productive.
  • The unconstrained creativity in its new version of the 3D Generative innovator combines the graphical visual scripting and interactive 3D modeling which can be used anytime.
  • The improved visual scripting feature allows the creative people in the field of Design/ Styling, Architecture, and engineering to quickly design and explore complex shapes and patterns.

The new version of CATIA R2019x makes the product designs easy to navigate and track. Also, these enhancements will help designers to improve their design, engineering and system process.

Creative Engineering Camp 2019

CADDZOOM

For 7-12 grade students

Want to make this summer vacation useful for your child? We have planned something exciting to help you with that.

Well, it’s the Creative Engineering Camp. You must be wondering how Engineering Camp will be helpful for kids? It might sound absurd that 7-12 years old children will learn engineering concepts, but trust us, it will be an excellent learning experience for your kid. CADD Centre is organizing this summer camp, and we ensure you, your child will fall in love with engineering after this. See what this camp has in stores for your child.

Engineering and Children

The camp will eliminate the significant misconceptions that children have about engineering and will let know how much exciting engineering is.

  • Engineering is both scientific and creative application.
  • Gives you the vision to see things from a new perspective.

Summer Camp Topics

The major topics that will be covered under this camp are:

· Plan CAD Next

Using AutoCAD, your child will learn to create innovative and impressive 3D drawings with a click of a mouse.

· Max 4 Animation

This exciting topic will teach the basics of animation, modeling, environment and more. Children will get hands-on training on 3DS Max.

· Max 4 Visualization

This topic will train students about textures, light, and materials required to make a wonderful product.

· Creative Modeler

This topic will help children to develop an understanding of the idea of modeling, geometries, and drawings that will enhance their designing skills.

· Creative Designer

This topic will help children to understand the process of designing using the SketchUp tool.

· 3D Printing

This topic will provide children necessary training, materials, and platform to develop a simple product.

· Jr. Designer

In this topic children will learn fun things like product modeling, real-time presentation, quick design, and animation, all under a single program.

· Jr. Professional

This is a professional certification course which aims at providing a comprehensive knowledge about designing processes and skills on the single program.

What do Parents you need to do?

Select a camp topic/course that you think is best suitable for your child and register him/her under it. At the end of the camp, the child will have to take an online exam, after that he/she will be awarded a certificate from CADD Centre, once the child clears the exam.

So, to all the parents out there, don’t wait. Register soon. Enrollments start from 1st March 19, give your child a place to explore new things.

Why Every Engineer Should Learn Machining?

CADDZOOM

Both engineers and machinists play a contributory role in the production process. However, they have interpersonal conflicts, such as machinists never follow engineer’s instructions and engineers never interpret their drawings properly. In order to have a close working relationship between engineer and machinists, all engineers should endeavor to gain some first-hand experience in machining. 

Engineers take on Machinists

Engineers and machinists are likely to have different backgrounds, interests, and standpoints on the manufacturing process. These variances can lead to misapprehensions and miscommunication. Learning the ins and outs of machining can give an engineer a complete insight of machine’s capability.  

Machinists take on Engineers

A common complaint from machinists is that engineers do not respect machinist’s expertise and do not clearly explain their requirement. According to machinists, issues of incomplete drawings and improper instructions can be avoided by bridging the gap of communication between machinists and engineers.

Learning Machining is important for an Engineer

In the current world, improving machining know-how is very important. An engineer having an understanding of machining can transfer engineering concepts into physical realizations and sometimes open their eyes to new opportunities and challenges.

The Future is Collaborative

The manufacturing process requires an ever-growing library of skills and knowledge. Above all, communication between machinists and engineers and faith in the experience and expertise of a team is important to make their work even better.

All in all, the manufacturing process can only be improved if machinists and engineers understand each other’s issues. Their collaborative efforts can accomplish great things in manufacturing.  

Engineering and Construction Trends 2019

CADDZOOM

The construction and engineering industries play an essential role in the development and growth of any nation.  It is an active participant in building the future of the modern world. So, let’s get some insights about what’s trending in the construction and engineering industry in 2019 and predict future prospects.

What’s coming up in 2019?

In 2018, the US has witnessed a 5% growth in the engineering and construction industry, which is likely to accelerate in 2019. The chances of more mergers and possessions are lined up in the year 2019.

2019 also has the following in stores for the construction and engineering industry:

  • Focussing on sensing technology and data-analytics for upgrading infrastructure, commercial buildings, and digitally transforming the concept of a smart city have significant opportunities in the future.
  • The use of unconventional technologies for the development of smart cities by the construction and engineering enterprises will increase their operational efficiency which will curtail the cost and increases profit margins.
  • Use of digital technologies like augmented reality, drones and GPS capturing services will keep engineers well-informed about overall on-site developments and gives a 360-degree view of the project.

In a nutshell, a digital boost in infrastructure and construction industry will prepare the sector for competitions and will set new benchmarks for future growth. Overall in 2019, industries will have an opportunity to innovate new infrastructure developments as with these technologies will help them foresee the growth prospects in the construction business.
